A backgrounded daemon closed stdin/stdout/stderr on entry; this meant that + those file descriptors could be used for SMTP connections. If anything + wrote to stderr (the example that came up was "warn" in embedded Perl), it + could be sent to the SMTP client, causing chaos. The daemon now opens + stdin, stdout, and stderr to /dev/null when it puts itself into the + background. + +76. Arrange for output from Perl's "warn" command to be written to Exim's main + log by default. The user can override this with suitable Perl magic. + +77. The use of log_message on a "discard" ACL verb, which is supposed to add to + the log message when discard triggers, was not working for the DATA ACL or + for the non-SMTP ACL. + +78. Error message wording change in sieve.c. + +79. If smtp_accept_max_per_host was set, the number of connections could be + restricted to fewer than expected, because the daemon was trying to set up + a new connection before checking whether the processes handling previous + connections had finished. The check for completed processes is now done + earlier. On busy systems, this bug wouldn't be noticed because something + else would have woken the daemon, and it would have reaped the completed + process earlier. + +80. If a message was submitted locally by a user whose login name contained one + or more spaces (ugh!), the spool file that Exim wrote was not re-readable. + It caused a spool format error. I have fixed the spool reading code. A + related problem was that the "from" clause in the Received: line became + illegal because of the space(s). It is now covered by ${quote_local_part. + +81. Included the latest eximstats from Steve (adds average sizes to HTML Top + tables). + +82. Updated OS/Makefile-AIX as per message from Mike Meredith. + +83. Patch from Sieve maintainer to fix unterminated string problem in + "vacation" handling. + +84.
